Interpolated 5-axis high-speed mould machining centre, the ideal solution for milling medium size workpieces in steel, aluminium, composite materials and resin. Speed, flexibility and compact design: Matrix 800, designed for high-speed machining requirements and the ideal choice for die and tool manufacturing and the aerospace industry, offers high performance and efficient machine dynamics all in a compact design satisfying problems related to limited space and production logistics. Matrix 800 has a work area of X = 2000, Y = 1600÷2500 and Z=800 and combines a compact design with precision machine dynamics and performance with an axis speed reaching 40m/min and accelerations up to 3m/sec2.

The dual-drive gantry structure, a significant feature of Breton machining centres, offers a large work area guaranteeing maximum operator freedom of movement always respecting and conforming to the stringent safety directives and standards in force. Matrix 800 is designed for easy access to the work area facilitating workpiece loading and unloading operations even when machining large size components, and incorporates reliable safety features and solutions combined with machining performance and efficiency. The performance Matrix 800 offers the operator is further enhanced by the electro arc welded heat treated structure adequately reinforced for improved rigidity.

The finite element method (FEM) used for designing Matrix 800 has allowed us to design structural elements which combine stability, precision with fast acceleration speeds. The structure ensures high machining performance and precision even during intensive milling operations.

The technological tradition of Breton - the twist head with continuous rotation of axis C and axis A ideal for machining undercuts with a ±105° rotation incorporated into Matrix 800 - offers high-speed simultaneous machining of complex 3-D workpieces.

The electrospindles - 50 kW and 55Nm torque for the 5-axis model and 137NM for the 3-axis model - with rotational speeds of up to 40,000 rpm allow for high-speed machining from rough milling to finishing operations. Thanks to the wide choice of optional accessories you can customise Matrix 800 to satisfy your specific machining and production requirements.
